If you are looking for a rewarding opportunity and to volunteer within an epic team that will help you grow and thrive, then you have come to the right place. Volunteering within our Self-Harm Network service you can start your day knowing what you do really does make a difference
We are looking to expand our team with a network of volunteers who add value to the work that we do.

As a mental health charity, we really value the wellbeing of our colleagues. That’s why we want you to know that you’ll be joining a friendly team, who will give you a supportive environment to help you thrive in your role, including all the training you need to feel confident and equipped.
Volunteering with Penumbra, we can promise you’ll be inspired by some pretty amazing humans every single day. We want you to grow and thrive We will support you on your own individual volunteering path, helping you to gain experience and develop new skills.
